I’m going to embarrass myself again with another paper contrast, the drawing may not be as high quality and as proportionally accurate on the cold pressed paper, but ignoring that, the way I use the watercolour and ink is wildly different.

I really enjoy Yupo paper as you can see all mistakes can me amended with virtually no penalty to the paper. The colour sits on the surface swirling and merging into interesting things and doesn’t permanently absorb and stain the paper unlike the cold pressed paper, so you have all the time in the world to make something worth posting about!

Hi, I am a self-taught watercolourist from England, I started oddkness.com to serve me as a journal to discover who I was and where I stand as an artist.

My work is devoted to the glorification of animals, being deprived their companionship in childhood has led me to become even more enchanted by their existence. I hope you enjoy my posts, and if you do — don’t be a stranger, I’d love to hear from you.
